Abstract

The paper presents a case study that proposes a technical solution to facilitate fish migration upstream the discharge sills located on Someşul Mic River, near the Mănăştur Dam from the Cluj Napoca Town. The proposed solution provides building of a system to facilitate fish migration, placed on the left bank of Someşul Mic River, meant to restore the longitudinal connectivity of Someşul Mic River in front of the Mănăştur Dam discharge sills and to facilitate the access of the migratory fish species to upstream breeding habitats. The proposed migration system is based on using traction of winches and the gravitational fall of water and will lead to the restoration of the longitudinal connection of the Someşul Mic River near the weir selected as case study, and will reconnect a habitat with a length of around one km, that will contribute to insuring of optimal conditions for developing migratory fish species present in the area.
